    Sounds like a new post idea.... If I can do it for Mercs I can do it for any Kustom category. Lol!

    That's not good.
    At least it's going to be fixed, my dad had a 50 Chevrolet Bel-Air Ht. when he was young ,actually it was the car he had when he and my , later became, mother first met ,and it was crashed a few months before I was born , it also got the side of it wiped off , but back then he didn't have the money to have it fixed so it was set on fire and hauled in for scrap.
    I live in the house that my dad was raised in and were the car was burned, several years ago I was doing some work in the front part of the property and I found the spot where apparently the car was torched , I dug up some big dribbled blobs of lead, when I told my dad he told me that it was from the car .
    I'm currently building a 50 Bel-Air to look similar to his. 20190708_222822.jpeg 20160327_173232-1.jpeg 20190708_161943.jpeg 20190708_161956.jpeg

    Sorry to see the Chevy got some damage. I hope they get it repaired soon and back on the road.

    Rikster is messing with me. Every time I see this concept it makes me rethink my direction of my 39 Sedan.

    I spotted this Merc in a February 1958 Custom Cars "little pages" .
    They called it "Koppers Kart" its owned by a Lynwood ,California policeman, Frank Sonzogni
    Customizing done by Barris Kustom Shop.
    Then I was looking through a August 1980 Custom Rodder and spotted this , I'm assuming white, other Merc that seems to have some of the same features, it's kind of hard to make out some of the details of the quarter panels, but the profiles look close ,taillights, bumpers,slanted b-pillar, spots, three spears on quarters .
    Of course its missing the side trim pieces, different wheel covers,paint.
    The event that it's at is the First Annual Southern Arizona Low Riders Happening at the Tucson Dragway.
    They have the owner / builder listed as Larry Dames.
    Ok ..Question..is this the same car? 20190709_025630.jpeg 20190709_025644.jpeg 20190709_040723(0).jpeg 20190709_040734(0).jpeg 20190709_040649.jpeg 20190709_030804.jpeg

    Ok ...thanks.
    I was just curious, there were alot of similarities.
    The writing of the owner being the builder on the white version was kind of throwing me off ,but I know how that can happen sometimes, especially if the person doing the story is not well informed and the person registering the car didn't give any details and they usually just list the owner as being the builder, of course then you have the one's that claim they did it all ,when they actually know nothing about the car or its history, if there was any, but if they do own it I guess they can say what ever they want.....that just gives the informed guys someone to laugh at.
    Thanks
